Top 5 most virulent young speakers in Parliament

Kirinyaga Representative Jane Njeri Maina has been listed among the loudest young speakers in the National Assembly for the year 2024.

A parliamentary score report released by Mzalendo places the MP ahead of her peers after contributing 37 times to debates and other issues of national importance.

Njeri was followed by Nandi Woma representative Cynthia Muge who spoke 22 times.

Manyatta MP Gitonga Mukunj, Mwingi West MP Charles Nguna and Yatta MP Basil Robert Ngui are tied for third place after contributing to motions and debates 20 times.

Mzalendo is a Kenyan non-partisan Parliamentary Monitoring Organization (PMO) that promotes open, inclusive and accountable parliaments across Kenya and Africa.

Performance was determined exclusively by the number of times MPs spoke in Parliament (speeches count) and as reported in Parliamentary Hansard, the official parliamentary record.
